CHEwETH THE CUD AND PARTETH THE
HOOF.
In one respect some of the most sensi-
BILE folks in the metropolis copy these
simple-minded and jealous Hebrews, and
it would be better if every one did; that
is in regard to their eating. They strictly
follow the rule laid down by Moses
whatsoever cheweth the cud and parteth
the hoof, that shall we eat" The law
mentions among forbidden flesh the meat
of the horses, camels, rabbits, pigs, all
fish or sea creatures that have not fins
and scales, and all birds of prey. These
orthodox Hebrews are, after all, not SO
very much more strict than their more
liberal brethren. Both sects maintain at
least score of slaughter-houses in and
close to New York, and very admirable
institutions they are. You see in them
none of the ropes and derricks and brutal
weapons that distinguish the abbatoirs of
the Christian. The orthodox Hebrew
butcher is scholar, and does his work
in scientific and dignfied manner, with
much wisdom, and in the full regalia of an
officer OF the church He is called a
"schochet," and he must have been regu-
larly schooled and trained, with knowl-
edge of surgery and anatomy, and deep
reverence for and acquaintance with the
Mosaic laws regarding "Kosher" and
"teripha," or fit and unfit food.
DEALS DEATH IN HIS ROBE.
He dons his official robes, and entering
the slaughter-room, finds the animals
that are to be slain all lying on theil
sides, each with its limbs tied together
He takes from its place wonderful knife
so long and thin that it bends of its own
weight, and so sharp that razor would
seem dull beside it. 1t is the duty of the
rabbi to examine the knives of a .schOchet
every now and then, and if one is found
to be rusty or nicked 1t is broken and
thrown away, and the scholarly butcher
is severely reprimanded. The knife must
be absolutely perfect. The schochet bends
back the head of the COW or calf he IL
about to kill and makes two deep cuts in
the animals throat, one across and one
straight down the windpipe. The blood
gushes forth and continues to flow until
the veins are nearly empty. This is the
object aimed alto rid all ~
meat of blood. 1t is not for Az
this that Christians pay
higher than the ordinary k&.yA
prices for this meat, but be- Wh
cause they know that only ESSk

ROMANCE.
The comely daughter of prosperous
but Jealous old Polander in this strange
colony used frequently to pass certain
corner grocery where faxen-haired,
rosy-cheeked German youth attended the
counter inside and the baskets on the
sidewalk. He played the part of Romeo,
and made her his Juliet, by falling into
forbidden love with her, little dreaming
that it was forbidden, or that, like
Romeo, he was performing tragic
drama. He began by making eyes at
her, then he grew to bowling to her, then
he picked out the rosiest apples to toss
to her, and finally he met her in the even
ings and decked her with an honest
youths affection. She was the wrong
doer, poor girl for she must have known
that among her people the ancient faith
that forbids intermarriage with un-
believers was the objectionable sin. But
she loved her grocer-boy, and when a
woman loves even ancient faiths are
sometimes impolitely treated.
When the young man proposed mar
riage she made up her mind that, as her
parents would never give her permission
to wed with MIN, she must 90 the next
thing to getting the permission, so she
got married first and went home and
pleaded her case afterward. The result
was heart-rending. Her stern old father
thrust her from his door, and her mother
turned her back on her, first burying her
face in her apron, however, as even stern
mothers must. She was told that she
was as one who had died, and that she
could no more hope to hold communion
with her people after that than If she
was in her grave. This tragic sentiment
was practically enforced by the purchase
of coffin and the assembling of all the
friends and relatives of the household,
who gather around the empty casket and
mourned as for the loss of maiden.
AT HER OWN FUNERAL.
And yet the girl herself was alive and
well and only few blocks away. On
the next day the hearse drove up, and
the coffln,. bearing her name and age and
deathday, was carried out of the house,
with the rabbi leading the way, while the
girl who seemed thus about to be buried
crouched in distant doorway, looking
on and weeping as If her
very soul were shaken. But
as she watched she saw
something that made her

The postoffice in India is regarded as SO
miraculous an agency by the more ignorant
natives that in some out-of-the-way places
the very letter boxes are worshiped. In
one case man posted his letter in the box
and shouted out its destination to inform the
presiding spirit whom he supposed to be in
side. Another native humbly took off his
shoes as he approached the box, went through
various devotions before and after posting
his letter. and finally put some coppers be.

The alte rations made last autumn in the
White House conservatory were compar-
atively slight, only affecting some neces-
sary repairs to the roof, the relayins of
the floor and introduction of new steam
pipes. 1t is noticeable that fewer orchids
are cultivated in the conservatory now
than during the regime of Miss Cleve-
land, who took great interest in these
curious plants. One noticeable change
which has ELECTED much conjecture as to

many qualifications the head Of

impression the hest person to al this
Office is Capt. c. w. Banks. His ripe
experience in life, combined with
sound judgement and good business
tactics, are the qualifications which
we believe him to possess, and which
go to make a good mayor. We hope
to see him elected. y

NOBLE L. PRENTIs gives 10 the fol-
lowing words in the AtchisOH Cham
piOn his view Of Salina, as result OF
his late visit:
At Salina, revisited after an absense
Of six years, great changes were OBJ
servable. The town was formerly
constructed afleT the fashion OF q
wasp. In two parts. The old narrow
Waistsd portion is now ss thick as the
rest and the city is symetEical.
There are 1000 people, and they have
al the modern eonveniences, gas light
BY night, street car transportation by
day, beautiful park in summer, and
steam heat In the houses In winter.
There Il q Methodist college at the
head Of one grand avenue, and q
Normal school At the head Of another,
and the EplscOpalians we believe. are
OF throw up an educational fort com
mAnding another entrance to
she city. The design would seem to
be 10 let no ignOramus escape. The
principal business carried on Is bank
ing, Insurance sud investing. You
look through plate glass on both sides
ofthe street ct wealth in quantity and
loaned on easy terms. The male In
habitants stand out on the sidewalks
and cry "bOom' from morning until
night. The "spring foretold 10y an
eisnt Kansas prophets, when proper
q wns 10 be higher" has arrived in
6alina. The pile" for which the
American citizen, native or adopted,

We are assured upon the best OF
authority that the Kate Bensberg
Opera Co. are the best musical organ
iIatiOn on the road, and those who
fail 10 attend the perfOrmaee here will
surely be very sorry ever afterward.
During the tour in the west people
have been enthusiastic in its praise.
Read the following from the IOtra
STATE Register:
THE SLEEPING QUEEN AT THE GRAND.
An audience much larger than the
night before greeted the Kate Bens-
berg Opera Company at the Grand
last night in q repetition Of the Sleep
ing Queen and the Third act Of Mar
tha. No more hearty and enthusiast
tic appreciation Of the merits Of the
company could be manifested than
the audience showed. Every special
passage, solo, duet or quartette was
heartily spplauded, and greatly en-.
jOyed. The company all sang in bet
ter voice than on the night preceding
and gave great satisfaction. In the
act from Martha, the charming solo,
"The Last Rose Of Summer" was
sung by Miss Bensberg in an exquis-
ite manner, for which the audience
insisted upon q recall, TO which she
kindly responded. Much Of the sue
cess OF the performance was due to the
splendid leadership of the musical
director Carlo A. SeTranO. He is q
maestro Of high reputation and great
ability, and his rendering Of the
piano score was not only Of great as.
sistance but added muchitO the inter-
est Of the entertainment. Miss Bens-
berg and her talented company have
made an enviable impression In Des
MOines, and so much delighted those
who heard them that they will be
heartily welcomed should they ever
favor this company again.
